Studying Microbial Community Structure and Associations Using DNA Sequence Data

KGI 121 Building - Room 1111 121 Bucknell Ave., Claremont, United States

Shibu Yooseph Kravis Professor of Integrated Sciences, Claremont McKenna College Cultivation independent approaches combined with DNA sequencing technologies have proven to be valuable tools in characterizing the incredible microbial diversity that exists in nature. These methods have been used to understand various aspects of microbial ecosystems including community composition, biogeographical distributions, microbe-environment interactions, microbe-host associations, […]

Assessing the Influence of Sequence Duplications and Genome Annotations on Transcriptional Profiling Measurements

KGI 121 Building - Room 1111 121 Bucknell Ave., Claremont, United States

Rodolfo Aramayo Associate Professor, Department of Biology Texas A&M University The rapid advancement of Next Generation DNA/RNA and Single Cell Sequencing Technologies is fundamentally reshaping the landscape of Biology. However, the main complexity lies in the processing of this data. For instance, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), a widely adopted method for discerning gene expression variations between […]
